Re: [kbuild-all] [PATCH 4/5 v2] pseries/iommu: implement DDW-aware dma_get_page_shift

[Christoph Hellwig]

Hi Fengguang,

I think this proactive testing does a little more harm than good in
it's current form.  While offering testing for patches that aren't in
git trees and or by people that don't even have a git tree that the
build bots known about does seem useful, blindly doing it for every
patch against something that most likely isn't the right base seems
counter intertuitive.  We'll probaby need some annotation in the O/n
mail that asks for a test and sets a base tree to actually make it
useful.  With those few tweaks it should be really useful!

Maybe we should have a discussion about this at kernel summit?
